?After Jin Rou left the ce where he killed the empress, he immediately went on to the next step of his n. He was currently in front of arge gate with lion statues on both sides. They seemed to be the guardian of this gate and anytime that Jin Rou do anything funny, they woulde back to life and kill him.


    "I want to seek an audience with the Tabler n Head." Jin Rou suddenly said. He was talking to no one, "And it will be better if you open up this gate immediately while I''m asking nice."


    Hearing this, the statues'' eyes turned red and were about toe back to life. However, they were stopped by an unknown force and a voice echoed, "Who are you?"


    "Who is me is not important. What''s important is that I can be big of a help to your n. You can sense my power level even a bit, right? Nevertheless, open this door or else I''ll force myself in." Jin Rou wasn''t willing to bicker for a long time. If the other party were to y hard to get, then he wouldn''t mind forcing himself in. It didn''t matter how many people woulde at him, they''d die in vain.


    ---


    In the deep ce of the Tabler n, the head was looking at the image of Jin Rou and didn''t immediately decide.


    "We can''t let him in, n Head." The first elder said with a nervous expression, "We''re inviting him to cut us in our territory! So we just need to activate our maximum defense and he will be helpless about it. Even the emperor couldn''t pass it through, so how could a young man like him can?"


    "First Elder is right, n Head." The second elder agreed and said, "I wouldn''t dare to invite a wolf in our mountain. While it is a good thing that he''s willing to help us, we don''t even know what is his agenda. What would be the benefits in it for him to do this."


    They didn''t want a visitor like Jin Rou. They could feel his strong power that could threaten them. Thus, they weren''t willing to take the risk. After all, they weren''t sure if they could win or not.


    The n head was still looking at the mirror in front of him. Then suddenly, the other party said out of patience, "It''s taking too long, n Head. Will you open this gate or not?"


    It was obviously a warning. If the n head didn''t answer immediately, he could feel that Jin Rou would immediately barge in without hesitation.


    The elders were shaking their heads. Clearly giving the n head their utmost denial of this.


    The n head sighed and looked at his elders, "I appreciate your concern about our n, and about our wellbeing. While you all have a point, I still have the final say here. We are already in a dire situation because of the Prime Family suppressing us. It doesn''t look a big of a deal to bet on something even if we aren''t sure of it."


    The elders choked their words. The n head was clearly saying that he was willing to take the bet and let Jin Rou in.


    The n head then looked at the mirror and smiled at the waiting young man, "Come in. Another gate will appear after you enter. That will lead you to me, the n Head."


    ---


    In the grandest courtyard of Tabler Family, Jin Rou was there and the n head and the n elders were also present. They had a look of attacking anytime in case Jin Rou do something not funny.


    "Why, you don''t have to be so uptight with my arrival." Jin Rou couldn''t help butugh, "You see, if I came here out of malice. Do you think I''ll ask nicely outside? And do you think you''ll still be alive right now?"


    The n head looked at the elders and shook his head. He was telling them to calm down, "I got this. Rest assured."


    The elders rxed a bit after hearing those words. But their guards were still up.


    "This friend here, what is your given name?" The n head knew that the other party didn''t want to reveal his identity, thus he just asked for something he could kill him.


    "I am called Jin, n Head Ryzel Tabler." Jin Rou smiled, "It''s nice to meet you."


    The n head smiled and flicked his fingers. A set of table and chairs for afternoon teas appeared. A ready-made tea was also there with expensive diamond cups, "Come, let''s have a tea while we discuss business."


    Jin Rou didn''t hesitate and take a cup. The n head poured some for him. He smelled the and took a sip of it with an elegant nature, "Nice immortal tea."


    "Thank you for yourpliment." The n head smiled and said. He also took a sip before proceeding to the topic, "I heard you mentioned about something being a big help to us. May I know what is it?"


    "I''ve heard that your Tabler n has been being suppressed by the entire imperial family because you''re power is going stronger and the family is keeping you in check." Jin Rou said.


    The n head smiled bitterly, "While it is shameful, it''s indeed correct. The Prime Family is afraid of being overthrown so they want to suppress those who can threaten them until we can''t fight back anymore."


    The Tabler n had always been a loyal aid for the imperial family. However, now that that the n was getting stronger, the family was threatened. After all, the n was only a level below them. Who knows what will happen if the Tabler n had thoughts of overtaking their power? Thus, the imperial family had no choice but to suppress them. After all, killing them wouldn''t be a choice because there were a lot of enemies waiting for them to make mistake.
